Living in Exile.
Random thoughts are floating through my head again today. So, I choose this one amongst all the others to talk about.

What I'm mostly thinking about is how some people go into an exile, for a small or large portion of their life. Many purposes cause this, Usually they'd not risk becoming betrayed but, at the cost of being alone and self-reliant. Or, a dark past keeps them away from society.

Sometimes, I if the brightest people with the most potential in life do this not just cause of a troublesome pasts but, it allows them peace and, balance to create.

So, what I'm really thinking about is, would spending a large amount of time away from all these distractions of day to day life allow people to become true genius' and, not just a status symbol. Probably a far-fetched idea.

We could experiment, but who'd be a good candidate (guinea pig) here?

My suggestions for it, Zipulrich (so long as he has his tin foil hat), Degsy (needs alcohol to be there wherever), Harrie (she refuses to go unless she can take her cookies with her), Nick Grana (only if there's political dabates allowed there), MishY (so long as he can twang his guitar), lufbra (no chickens involved), AnnMarie (just as long as Dammit isn't invited)!!

Yeah, I'm getting sick & tired of being a status symbol. Time I let my true genius develop.
I'm heading off to the largest rock I can find.

One doesn't have to live in exile to achieve peace and balance in life.

Quite funny, yes.

But, there is some kind of truth to it, watched a PBS show about a man living in the wilderness, he did some really amazing things.

In the summer i feel more stressed than any other time of the year.. winter is so much easier... busy busy busy.. everyone seems so busy.. i just want to sit and have a bit of peace ....a rock would be good. a secluded cove in the Bahamas would be even better and a visit to the moon top of the list..... i always fancied a go in one of those sensory deprivation tanks.... quiet... no kids. no traffic. no puppy barking ... no noise... first class
